Ok, yes, I know who took the flyer to the Daily News, and no it was not anonymous.  This person took the flyer to a reporter on Tuesday, the same week of Mr. Wilson's interview.  It did not anonymously show up at the loading dock, while that is a fun story to tell, and seems to aid in discrediting the Daily News.  The flyer itself, did not name the history conference, it simply said "Meet the Authors." It also had quotes from the book, with all the citations and bibliographic information for reference sake.  In my opinion, it is a dangerous book, but hey that's just my opinion.  Others may be of the opinion that it is a well written book on the true nature of the south.
